Cookie Time

Making a batch of cookies has always been a big deal to me. Something that takes time. Andrea makes cookies like its nothing! By the time I run to the store and buy a package of Oreos, she’ll have the first warm batch coming out of the oven. She has always been that way. Even before the kids came along, Ben had homemade chocolate chips in his lunch. I’m pretty sure he didn’t have “extra crispy” bottoms like Wally did! When Andrea visits my house, she dusts off the mixer and oils its little engine and stirs up cookies. So should I have been surprised that she made cookies while I was visiting? Well I was. When you get two babies asleep at the same time, making cookies is not my first thought. But then, she did have two efficient helpers!

Elaine is big enough to crack an egg…

…and mix it up!

Nolan is big enough for small dumps and little taste checks!

He checks all the ingredients…these are peanut butter cookies

Kind of busy tasting still to take his turn at measuring!

There we go, Mom is helping to pour and sister’s expert eyes are making sure it is right! Big sisters are very good at this, it’s part of their job description!

Back to what he does best…tasting

Lip smacking approved!

Double delight!

I wish I was having a warm cookie with my coffee and Grands right now!!
